“You can be awake but still be asleep,” Union Square, NYC, July 7, 2016
Update: 2016-07-11
Description
In the days following the Fourth of July weekend, we watched videos and news of more murders of people of color by on-duty police officers across the US, including Philando Castile, Alton Sterling, and Delwarn Small. Friends and strangers continue attending actions and scanning social media feeds: alert, horrified, or half-asleep. Fred recorded this public conversation that was impressively moderated by Carlene Pinto at Union Square on July 7. We share the unedited recording with those who were and those who were not able to attend that night. This is a document of terror and pride, an outpouring of advice, anger, and reflections on what it means to be a person of color in the United States, what it means to be a person, an ally, accountable.
